-- A rather pointed statement on SCOTUS vacancy from Senator Warren --

[maddiemom]

25. Agree! We do need Warren where she is.

Except---just possibly as a VP candidate under the right circumstances (Bernie, as two women candidates would be too much to ask). McConnell's last opponent (Allison ?) made a big mistake blowing off support of Obama. Although not a native of Kentucky, I was a resident for some time and consider it a pretty sticky state in terms of politics (involved story as to why I think so). Any moderate Republicans have certainly been influenced or bullied by the tea party. Forget all the obstructionist attitudes the Republicans have honestly come right out and admitted: announcing a refusal to never consider any candidate for the Supreme Court (and I agree the lifetime thing should be reconsidered) comes close to treason. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE . It should be a no brainer.
